35、ters. She loved them very much, but two girls would fight with each other from their earliest years. As they grew older, they became total strangers. They had no contact with each other when they were adults.This caused the mother great pain. Then, later, she had an idea. She decided to write a lett

36、er to them. In this letter, she told them how much she loved them, and how she wanted them to love each other in this way. She also gave them news of herself, and some guidance on how they might live happier lives.When the letter was ready, she wrote out one copy for each daughter, but these copies

37、were special. Each copy contained only every second sentence of the original letter. The copy for one daughter had only the even(偶数的) sentences, and the other daughters copy contained only the odd sentences. Neither copy made sense on its own. Neither contained the fullness of the mothers message.Wh

38、en the two daughters received their letters, they were puzzled. If they really wanted to know what the letters said, they would have to put the two letters together, and read them as one. That meant they must approach one another again in mutual(彼此的) love and respect.For a long time, the mother wait

39、ed in vain. Both daughters tried to understand the half-letter, but they each blamed the other for not helping them. Each daughter thought she knew her mother better.Then one day, when the mother had almost given up hope, there was a knock at the door. There they stood, together. “Weve come home,” t

44、titanium(钛), Fineck monitors a wearers movement, balance, posture and movement thanks to sensors inside. The Mountain View California-based firm says that a high percentage of people suffer from neck pain and associated problems, probably caused by more individuals doing office jobs, which generally

45、 involve leaning over computer keyboard. The device contains sensors, several different types of instruments to monitor movement, plus a monitor to shake. It connects to an iOS app via Bluetooth so that wearers can see their bad habits and play “neck training” games. The app warns of health risks an

46、d records a users activity to build up a customer personal health description. The necklace shakes to give smart advice, such as reminding wearers to sit up straight. The app also allows users to set goals, like many other wearables do. “Fineck is the first wearable device for your neck that tracks

47、your neck activity and warn you when you are in a bad posture for too long. You can also exercise your neck with Finecks interactive games.” The company writes on Kickstarter. “No matter where you are and what you are doing at office, on the go, or simply just feeling bored, Fineck will bring you en

48、riched exercise experience through motion sensing games and therapies.” It also claims that it is “the worlds first titanium wearable device”. The metal is widely used in fashion stuff that you can wear or carry to match your clothes because it is lightweight, durable and does not tend to cause alle

49、rgic(过敏的)reactions.

The ER was downwind of t

54、he Remco chrome plant. “I used to sit facing that window and kind of daydream out the window, looking at Remco, looking at the fog coming out of there. Then I would cough and cough.” Stemgold said. What Dr.Stemgold didnt know was that Remco was flowing out Chromium VI into the air- a chemical known

55、to cause cancer and breathing problems in humans. A recent state health department study found that people who were in Willits when Remco was in operation from 1964 to 1995 are at higher risk for cancer because of Chromium VI exposure. Today Dr.Stemgold has lots of time to play his guitar. It turns

56、out he has a form of breathing difficulty. Hospital chemicals cause coughing so violently that hes broken bones and its cost him his career. Others in this town believe the Chromium has made them sick, too, and their families. Actually, Chromium VI was classified as a carcinogen , a cancer-causing s

57、ubstance, thirty years ago, Twenty years ago, a group of state scientific specialists found no exposure level below which carcinogen effects would not have some probability of occurring. Still, Remco was allowed to flow out Chromium VI into the air. In the battle to balance public health and a healt

58、hy economy, laws often favor business, Alan Ramo is a professor of law at Golden Gate University. “There is a real drive to make money, to have employment. When theres a real job thats available and a theoretical risk of a chemical, jobs win out, business wins out.” And chemicals are allowed to floo

But the vast majority of industrial chemicals are put into use little testing of any kind Chemicals that people like us, you and me might be exposed to. Marilyn Underwood is with California state health depart

60、ment. “ You need to have the convincing evidence that something is bad to then start regulating it.” However, in most cases, chemicals are not tested until someone reports the abnormal, unnatural condition of the environment in general. “I think that if people really knew what really goes on with en

61、vironmental protection I think they would be shocked and they should be.” Says Professor Ramo. “It might be valuable for other people to know what has happened to me, not for me but for them.” He said “because they might be in a similar situation because of where they work.”67.

How do I get it in

66、to the dictionary?”This is, by far, the question lexicographers(词典编纂者）hear the most. People invent new words all the time, but which ones actually make it into the dictionary? When lexicographers decide what words to add to dictionaries, they try to imagine what words users actually want to look up.

67、 There are important factors to keep in mind here.1) Is the word in widespread usage?The usage question is an important one that gets at the heart of how dictionaries are written. When modern lexicographers try to add words to dictionaries, they tend to approach their work from the angle of descript

68、ivism that is, they observe how the language is being used, see if its a common phenomenon, and then write definitions based on their research.2) Does the word have staying power?Widespread usage does not, however, guarantee a word a shiny new definition in a dictionary. Is the word going to stay ar

69、ound for a while, or is it just a passing fad? Is it likely to be in use in 5, 10, 20, or even 100 years? These are important questions to ask because there are far more updates and new words to be added to dictionaries than lexicographers have time to write.3) Are you famous? Do you have influence?

70、If youre famous, that could definitely up your chances of getting a word into a dictionary. Are you a writer? That could help. Take, for example, William Shakespeare, who invented (or at least popularized) hundreds of words and phrases commonly used today. Politicians also make their contributions.

71、Abraham Lincoln invented the word neologize, and Winston Churchill has the first citation(引语）in the OED for many words, including fluffily and fly-in. So if youre a person with influence and a following, the words you use can spread into common usage, which, as discussed above, is very important whe

72、n it comes to gaining dictionary-entry.4) Does the word fill a gap in the language?If youre not famous, there are other ways. Maybe youre a scientist introducing new concepts to the public. Take, for example, the Higgs Boson particle(粒子), named after physicist Peter W. Higgs. But you dont have to be

73、 a scientist to get your word a dictionary entry. Just look at Dominique Ansel, the pastry chef (糕点师) who captured the stomachs of New Yorkers with his dessert, the cronat. His invention even inspired copycats in the form of doissants and daffins.Apart from these, it does sometimes help if the word

74、is fun to say. The term blog is relatively new, which arose in 1999 when Peter Merholz made a light-hearted comment on the sidebar of his “weblog” telling his readers “Ive decided to pronounce the word weblog as wee-blog. Or blog for short.” And theres also Dr. Seuss, who invented the term nerd.So,

75、why do some words make it into dictionaries while others dont? With the knowledge discussed above in hand, the answer is more than obvious. Go forth! Use language creatively! Lexicographers are listening!Title: How does a word gain (71)_ into the dictionary?ReasonsDetailsExamplesBeing used (72)_With

76、 the approach of descriptivism, modern lexicographers will observe how commonly a word is used and (73) _ it according to their research.Having staying powerThe (74) _ a word remains in use, the more likely it is to be put into the dictionary.Being invented by famous peopleChances of dictionary entr
